Highway superintendent asks board to support Butter Lane parking restriction during public hearing
Summary
At a public hearing to amend parking rules in Bridgehampton, Highway Superintendent Charlie McCall asked the board to support a restriction on Butter Lane (about 1,500 feet) to address safety concerns near a school and commercial properties; the hearing was closed with no Zoom speakers.
During Public Hearing No. 4, the clerk read a proposed amendment to Town Code Chapter 312 (vehicles and traffic) listing locations where parking would be prohibited in Bridgehampton. Charlie McCall, Southampton Highway Superintendent, told the board the area near Butter Lane includes a mix of commercial properties and a nearby school and recommended restricting parking on one side for safety. "I'd ask the board to support that," McCall said, asking the board to limit parking to reduce hazardous curb jumping and unsafe crossings.
Board members requested aerials and discussed whether the restriction could be relaxed later if conditions change. No members of the public spoke on Zoom; the board closed the hearing and will consider the code amendment in future action.
